Test Quotes

In the early stages of negotiation software, on your smartphone, there may be programs that listen to the pitch of a voice, or that test for stress. You’ll just ask the program, ‘Was he lying? Was he eager to do business with me?’ Maybe the computer will be right sixty per cent of the time Picture Quote #1

The real test of business greatness is in giving opportunity to others. Many business men fail in this because they are thinking only of personal glory Picture Quote #1

[The] men of the technostructure are the new and universal priesthood. Their religion is business success; their test of virtue is growth and profit. Their bible is the computer printout; their communion bench is the committee room Picture Quote #1

It’s true: lives do drift apart for no obvious reason. We’re all busy people,we can’t spend our time simply trying to stay in touch. The test of a friendship is if it can weather these inevitable gaps Picture Quote #1

Can you design a Rorschach test that’s going to make everyone feel something every time - and that looks like a Rorschach test? It’s easy to show a picture of a kitten or a car accident.

The International Space Station is a phenomenal laboratory, an unparalleled test bed for new invention and discovery. Yet I often thought, while silently gazing out the window at Earth, that the actual legacy of humanity’s attempts to step into space will be a better understanding of our current planet and how to take care of it Picture Quote #1

There’s a rumour going ‘round that if you amass a certain number of penalty points on your driving licence, the authorities will make you take your test again! Now, if ever there was an incentive to drive carefully, they could not have threatened a more terrifying ordeal Picture Quote #1

I think the real test is to plan something and be able to carry it out to the very end. Not that you’re always enthusiastic; it’s just that you have to get this thing out. It’s not done with one’s emotions; it’s done with the head Picture Quote #1

The book [Manufacturing Consent] itself is then devoted to a series of case studies, selected, we hope [with Edward Herman], to offer a fair and in fact rather severe test of those conclusions Picture Quote #1

What we do is we test what works on Wall Street. And sometimes it is earnings momentum, and sometimes it’s earnings surprises. Sometimes it’s price-to-sales cash flow, and then we put together our stock selection models Picture Quote #1

So, I didn’t get moved up because of celebrity status or anything like that. I got in line, and I passed the test. And they realized that I was sick enough, and as soon as the liver became available, I got one Picture Quote #1

I have a Ph.D. in cell biology. And that’s really manual labor. I mean, experimental science, you do it with your hands. So it’s very different. You’re out there in a lab, cleaning test tubes, and it just wasn’t that fascinating Picture Quote #1

Everything’s the same; I’m living with cancer and it’s not going to stop me. But until you really test yourself and challenge yourself, I don’t think you quite know Picture Quote #1

Everybody in this life has their challenges and difficulties. That is part of our mortal test. . . . Peace comes through hope Picture Quote #1

The ultimate test of practical leadership is the realization of intended, real change that meets people’s enduring needs Picture Quote #1

Sport strips away personality, letting the white bone of character shine through. Sport gives players an opportunity to know and test themselves Picture Quote #1

There’s no doubt West Point impacted who I am... It has an enormous emphasis, not only on military aspects, but character development.

I was ill. I was told I was stressed, so I had to get everything checked out. I didn’t think I was, but someone told me I was. As a result, I went to get a blood test. I’d never had one before, so I held my breath when I was getting it done. That caused me to go into a fit Picture Quote #1

I think there’s so much negative influence on children in school settings. It becomes learning by rote to pass a test. It’s not contextualized Picture Quote #1

I was a terrible painter - my portraits looked like the evil chimera love-children of Picasso’s demoiselles and the BBC test card clown Picture Quote #1

There’s only one test of a great children’s book, or a great children’s film, and that is this: If it can be read or viewed with pleasure by adults, then it has the chance to be a great children’s film, or a great children’s book Picture Quote #1

At the age of nine, I could cross the length of Glasgow on a succession of buses, wearing regulation garter-topped stockings and compulsory cap and - if I’d done well enough to earn the honour in last week’s test - with a First World War medal on a striped ribbon pinned to my brown blazer. I must have looked like a chocolate soldier Picture Quote #1

The test of our social commitment and humanity is how we treat the most powerless of our fellow citizens, the respect we accord to our fellow human beings. That is what reveals our true culture Picture Quote #1

With my academic achievement in high school, I was accepted rather readily at Princeton and equally as fast at Yale, but my test scores were not comparable to that of my classmates. And that’s been shown by statistics, there are reasons for that Picture Quote #1

Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test it’s a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain Picture Quote #1

The way to test a man’s sincerity is to serve him a bad cup of coffee. If he doesn’t comment, he is not to be trusted Picture Quote #1

I don’t care if it’s a Cole Porter song, or George Gershwin, or Lennon/McCartney, or Elton John, or you know, whoever, Bob Dylan. Great songs are great songs, and they stand the test of time, and they can be interpreted and recorded with many points of view, but yet still retain the essence of what makes them good songs Picture Quote #1
